The FC Blitz 03 Liegnitz (full name football club Blitz 03 Liegnitz ) was a German football club from the Lower Silesian city of Liegnitz (now Legnica, Poland).
history
The club was founded on August 3, 1903 by 5 young people (Fritz Tasch, Richard Scholz, Willy Scholz, Oskar Scholz and Otto Barth) as FC Blitz 03 Liegnitz . The new club was accepted into the Southeast German Football Association without difficulty and was soon able to take part in the game. However, FC Blitz did not have its own space in the initial phase, so that it had to rely on makeshift arrangements and the hospitality of local rivals. However, the lack of their own venue did not prevent the FC Blitz board from including other sports in the club's offer in addition to football, namely swimming , handball , gymnastics , winter sports and athletics .
In the 1920s and 1930s, FC Blitz 03 was overshadowed by the leading Liegnitz clubs such as ATV Liegnitz and VfB Liegnitz .
In 1933 FC Blitz 03 Liegnitz missed the qualification for the newly introduced Gauliga Schlesien and from then on played in the second-rate district league Lower Silesia . In 1934 there was a merger with Liegnitzer BC to form Liegnitzer BC Blitz 03 . After the 1939/40 season, the club withdrew from gaming. After the end of the Second World War, the city of Liegnitz became Polish and the Liegnitzer BC Blitz 03 was dissolved.
